Patronize Home Industry.

Those parties who ignore their

that they were being fairly treated
If those who deal with them should
ignore them and do their trading

home industries, because they are

indirectly benefit themselves by
giving what support they can to
home institutions. The money
put into circulation here helps
business here. The money sent
out of the city for that which can
as well be obtained here does the
city no good.
The above taken from the Sas

we think that all of our business
men ought to read it and pander
well. Farmers, merchants, meo

should patronize the home indus

and county. We have two variety
shops in Dawson, in which sash,
blinds, doors and all kinds of moul-
dings and casting can be had.
These shops employ several work.

supplies Eori the merchants of the
city. Yet there are merchants,
who will, when building. send off
to get their sash, blinds &c. They
do it simply because they can save

saving them money? If the money

be paid to the employees as wages

Suppose the farmer should order

mention but these will suffice to
show that it is to the interest of all
to patronize homeindustries. know.

1t used to be thought that the
guinea hen would lay more eggs
in year than the ordinary do
nestle fowls. This is rot true
now, as compared with some of
the best laying breeds, thus show
ing the improvements made in
poultry as regards egg production,
as it is probable that the guinea
fowls are as good layers as they
ever were. We have, however
improved the producing powers OF
our fowls mainly by importing
breeds, rather than breeding up
his Characteristic in what we had.
Possibly if more care were taken
to select eggs from the most pro-
ductive guinea to breed from, their
laying capacities would be improv-
ed. The fact that commonly bred,
with no care, they arc good layers,
indicates that they are good stock
to experiment with in this direc>
ton. 1t is quite common where
hawks abound to keep a few guineg

A NOTED
Tom Mcguire, of Butte. Pays Cheyenne
Visit.

Among the arrivals in Cheyenne last
evening was the celebrated Tom Mcguire,
of Butte City, Mont, the best known and
most extensive theatrical manager in the
whole West. Mr.. Mcguire is still a young
man but his theatrical experiences en-
brace a range of country than ever in
cludes Australia in its scope. From his
headquarters at Butte and with the aid of
his assistants he has over a dozen theaters
directly under his control and through
him all legitimate attractions are man
aged through Montana clear to the coast.
He began his career in San Francisco and
is full Of "reminiscences of the theatrical
lights from the days when he played
juvenile characters in Australia with the
celebrated English comedian Charles
Mathews.
He has been in the thick of all the big
booms in the far West. He was assist
ant manager of a theater in Virginia
City in the bonanza days when R. NJ.
Daggett, Judge Goodwin, now of the
Salt Lake Tribune, Dan De guile and
Mark Twain were ornaments of the
towns Journalism. He managed a can
vas, dirt floor theater in Phoebe, the most
tangled headed mining town that ever
rose and hourished in Montana. Butte,
he says, is now ENJOYING a period of pros,
perity similar to that of Virginia City in
the palmy days. 1t is not so gorgeous in
some respects, but substantially it gets
there just the same.
Mr.. Mcguire, in connection with Peter
McCourt, is managing Thos. Mast on his
tour of the West, and his visit to Chey-
enne was made to arrange for the appear.
ance of the great caricaturist here.

WHIPS FOR THE WEST.
The Cheyenne Manufacturing Company
TO supply Them.

The Cheyenne Manufacturing company,
with a capital stock of 81, 500, has filed
articles of incorporation with the county
clerk and territorial secretary. Louis
Kirk, Ed. B. Kirk and P. S. Harrington
are trustees for the ensuing year. The
organization of this company is the result
of the burning of the Cheyenne Whip
factory several months ago, Just as that
institution was commencing to flourish.
Though the capital stock appears small
this undertaking is the initial step in the
establishment of a mammoth concern.
The company will at once begin the
manufacture and sale of whips, and will
deal in all sorts of leather and other mate
rails necessary to the carrying on Of the
business.
A patent whip. said 20 be a most useful
article, will be manufactured exclusively
by the concern. Their wares will be
marketed in Wyoming, Colorado and Ne.
braska. When the whip factory was in
operation it competed successfully with
Denver concerns, the only opposition west
of Omaha. The raw material for the
manufacture of their goods can be OBJ.
tanned at reasonable figures.
1t is a curious fact that quirts have
never been manufactured in the East.
The cowboy riding whip is probably the
only article used in the West that cannot
be secured in the East.
The Cheyenne Manufacturing company
will fill a field heretofore unoccupied, and
its stockholders cannot fail to profit by
the shrewd investment made. The plant
will be in operation in about three weeks.
The incorporation of this company fur
Their evidences that Cheyenne is destined
to become a manufacturing town at no
distant day, being already a railway CEN

and surroundings.

A DAMAGING ADMISSION.

II was an unpleasant revelation that wa
made in the Knights of Labor convention
at Minneapolis, to the effect that larg'
sums of money had been expended from
the general treasury to prevent the election
Of certain congressman designated by the
general executive board. The men desig-
mated as ''the enemies of organized labor
were Randall of Pennsylvania, Carlisle OF
Kentucky, Morrison of Illinois. and Reed
Of Maine. The fight against Randall was
called Off almost as soon as 1t started.
Probably it was realized thst the working
men Of Pennsylvania were not such idiots
as to strike down almost the only promin-
ent protectionist In the Democratic ranks.
But Morrison was defeated In Illinois, and
Carlisle was badly frightened In Kentucky.
A bitter attact was inside on Congressman
Reed OF Maine, but he received
about the usual Republican plurality.
The attact on these men was a
secret enc. made under oaths Of secrecy in
the local assemblies Of each district. Mem
bers Of the order were assured that the
good OF the organization required the de-
feat of these men, who of course were con-
demned unheard and given no opportunity
for reply.
These statements are given to the press as
admitted facts. 1t IL alleged that large
sums Of money were used in this clandes-
tine manner at the orders of select com
mittee, and that the matter Is not referred
to by General Master Workman Powderly
or By the general secre AIRY and treasurer In
their official reports to the convention. If
these things are true 1t must have damsg-
aging effect On the order. The average
American citizen will not take kindly to
the Introduction Of secret methods into
political campaigns, nor to submitting the
fate OF candidates to the decision OF a secret
committee which is not even responsible to
